Re: Spacebrokes Hills doors to open by the end of the month.

I've experimented with it before ODM, laying the mug papers and the RP Naps which often have odds below the bookies board price on Betfair, the problem with that method is there isnt enough selections to make it turn it into a 'system' for me. The RP naps table is a goodun for a decent easy number of selections but as I've said theres too many races daily that youre almost certain to lose money on, bringing about the situation I mean when I say 'system'. The bad races basically reduce your number of selections, if 10 tipsters go in the same race then basically youre writing it off unless you get luck with a short priced winner, leaving you 10 bets down over all, it just happens to be the case that they keep bloody taking each other on every day!

By 'system' I mean a method of picking horses that wont eventually start to rely on the bigger priced winners or losers coming in to pay off, once you start looking for individual runners to show an overall profit youre on your way to the poorhouse.

I like laying the picks from the PL as they are fairly well laid out and easy to pick up, plus its populated by the dregs of the gambling world, I want to add a couple more websites selections to my horses portfolio to get the number up. As I said before I'm now laying all of their 'best bets' and horses that 3 or more RP napsters have flagged up.

This is the point of waiting a few weeks to get myself sorted out, if it takes me 3 hours a day to get all my bets together I cant do it, also the more easily available tips I can find the more I can put down on betfair daily.

I think I'll use here for football bets too and bugger the PL footy section, looking at another couple of sites that offer previews on bethelp to add to them. Obviously the weekend is the time for football but I want to have varied markets on daily.

The theory behind all of this is sound IMO, I'm not looking at this as me laying horses but rather accepting their bets, as for the most part I'll know exactly who I'm going up against and theres zero of my own analysis involved! The more bets I take the more chance I'll see an overall profit long term.

Heres todays horses...

I make that a small profit of 1.94 on what must be a considered a great day for the backers.


Bookies drive mercs and punters drive bikes, bookies dont live in council houses but want to get as close to them as possible......................... etc

Aye I'll be getting myself a jag and a camel coat soon if I can sort this mess out. Need a couple of footy sites and a US sports one.
